CyberPix is the on-line art gallery of UK based artist, Nigel Follett.

''...some of his artworks are absolutely beautiful. Actually, there's a whole wealth of stuff, some with an uncomfortably acute resonance with some of the Big Concerns, both political and environmental...'' Prof. Paul (Oz) Hardwick. Professor of English, Leeds Trinity University, England.

Nigel's work has gained an international reputation and his painting 'Ragnar's Epitaph' is a Lumen Prize 2014 world's top 100 digital artwork and was displayed in the International Lumen on-line gallery for several months. The Lumen Prize is 'The world's pre-eminent digital art prize' (The Guardian Culture Blog).

For three months from November 2014 'Ragnar's Epitaph' was also on display in the lobby gallery of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) HQ in Canary Wharf, London, UK.

During December 2014, another of his works was used by two major environmental pressure groups in a global campaign against PepsiCo for their use of conflict palm oil.

Unusually, Nigel's digital paintings do not use filtered photographs, or over-painting and for the past three years his works are all free-hand, relying on technique rather than photo-manipulation or CGI.

He has over 26,000 Facebook followers and over 1,000,000 views on Google+. Nigel is a Trustee of Livewire Youth Music, a charity in the UK, supporting sometimes vulnerable young people through music and music technology.
